Walking Home ...





"We're all just walking
each other home."

Ram Dass

This morning I received the above quote by Ram Dass from my dear 'sister of the heart', Nancy (nanyoga-alongthepath.blogspot.com).  It resonated warm feelings within me.

Immediately, my memories turned back to childhood where friends walked everywhere, usually joined arm in arm.  We would 'meet in the middle' or walk each other half way home or walk to school together.  As a child, the walk was a sacred time to share hidden dreams,  sadness and secret crushes on boys in our class.  These walks provided time to feel safe with each other, reducing any fears that might bubble up in our little world.

So with this image of us all being friends walking 'home' together, I feel happy and safe ... not quite so alone while following my sacred path.
